| Subject: | PAM and password authentication |

I am trying to get password authentication to go via the PAM stack on 3.8.1p1-4 (that is, the version from Debian sarge/testing), running under Debian testing. I have added the line "UsePAM yes" and left password authentication enabled in sshd_config. When someone logs in via keyboard-interactive, the authentication goes via PAM. When they log in using the password authentication, ssh goes straight to the password file. Disabling privelege separation does nothing to change this behaviour. This is an issue for us because the windows ssh commercial client does not do keyboard-interactive authentication by default and I need to make things as easy as possible for the users. Does PAM only work via keyboard-interactive?
